Lyrics

I wish

I have a desire or longing.

I wish I was back down south with my cousins

I wish I could be back in the southern region with my relatives.

I got a few

I have a few things.

There wasn't much to do around

There weren't many activities to engage in.

You knew every face in town

You were familiar with everyone in the town.

Yes you do

A reaffirmation of knowing everyone in town.


Oh well I

Expressing resignation or acceptance.

I think you know by now

I believe you understand or are aware.

I love that place

I have strong affection for that location.

I know it sounds a little crazy but maybe

Although it might seem unusual, perhaps the Lone Star State is the perfect place for me.

That Lone Star State could be the perfect place for me

Expressing the possibility of Texas being an ideal place to belong.


I buy a new pack of picks every day

I purchase a fresh set of guitar picks every day.

Or guitar strings

Or I acquire new guitar strings.

They would break

The strings I use tend to snap or break.

They'd break for sure

They are prone to breaking.

Whatever it was I played something new

Despite the breakage, I experiment with playing something different.

Every town we were in tune

In every town, I was in harmony or in sync.

Yes we were

A confirmation of being in tune with the towns visited.


Oh and I

Expressing recognition or acknowledgment.

I think you know by now

I believe you understand or are aware (repeated).

I love that place

I have strong affection for that location (repeated).

I know it sounds a little crazy but maybe

Although it might seem unusual, perhaps the Lone Star State is the perfect place for me (repeated).

That Lone Star State could be the perfect place for me

Expressing the possibility of Texas being an ideal place to belong (repeated).
